    What's big?
    Full term Babies are generally the right size.
    Mine were both over 10lb and I had two uncomplicated vaginal births with no question at any stage of either of them getting stuck.

    It's a lot more about your baby being the right size for you, than for your carer's idea of big

    All my us told me how big my babies were and ALL my us were out by at least 2 pounds! They told me number 5 was a big boy going to be at least 12 pounds, well he looked small but weighed 8 pounds, so yeah, u will find out on d day and i agree with trillian.

    I think you have to address this then my friend!!!! Have you read any birthing books? Not sure who in our group has my childbirth without fear book, but if they can send it to you I'm more than happy for you to borrow it for a bit
